Product details
Overview
RS2GFS from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2 A, 400 V fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in SOD-128 package, featuring 150 ns reverse recovery time, 1.01 V forward voltage at 2 A/25°C, and 175°C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a primary output rectifier in high-frequency DC-DC converters requiring low conduction loss and fast switching.
For engineers reviewing the RS2GFS datasheet, RS2GFS pinout, RS2GFS application, or RS2GFS equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (400 V), thermal resistance (16 °C/W junction-to-lead), reverse recovery time (≤150 ns), forward voltage consistency across temperature, and SOD-128 mechanical compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The RS2GFS employs a glass-passivated silicon PN junction optimized for fast recovery in switching power supplies. Its 150 ns trr and low 11 pF junction capacitance enable efficient operation at frequencies up to several hundred kHz without excessive switching loss or ringing.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 16 °C/W and RθJA = 73 °C/W on a 5 mm × 5 mm copper pad, supporting continuous 2 A operation at ambient temperatures up to 105°C when properly mounted. The device uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability standards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - Withstands repetitive reverse voltage up to 400 V without breakdown in flyback or forward converter secondary-side applications. |
| IF | 2 A - Continuous average forward current rating defines maximum steady-state output capability in DC-DC rectification stages. |
| trr | ≤150 ns - Fast reverse recovery minimizes switching losses and EMI generation during hard-commutation in SMPS topologies. |
| VF @ 2A, 25°C | 1.01 V - Low forward drop reduces conduction loss and improves system efficiency at nominal load conditions. |
| RθJL | 16 °C/W - Enables direct thermal path to PCB copper, supporting reliable 2 A operation without external heatsinking on standard FR-4. |
| Junction Temp | –55°C to +175°C - Wide operating range supports industrial and automotive under-hood environments with transient thermal stress. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH2R04 | Same 2 A / 400 V rating; 125 ns trr; TO-277 package (larger footprint, higher RθJA = 90 °C/W) | Requires PCB redesign due to different outline and thermal pad layout; better for higher ambient temp with heatsink. | Select if thermal margin >25°C required at 2 A continuous and board space permits TO-277. |
| ES2D | 2 A / 200 V rating; 35 ns trr; same SOD-128 package; lower VF (0.93 V @ 2 A) | Not suitable for 400 V bus designs; limited to ≤200 V output stages like 12 V/24 V secondary rails. | Select only where VRRM headroom <200 V is acceptable and ultra-fast recovery is prioritized over voltage rating. |
Compared with STTH2R04 and ES2D, the RS2GFS uniquely balances 400 V rating, SOD-128 footprint, and 150 ns recovery in a single industrial-grade package-making it optimal for space-constrained 24–48 V output SMPS where voltage margin and thermal density are both critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating for RS2GFS?
The RS2GFS has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 400 V, verified per JEDEC test conditions and confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official TSC datasheet (Version C2304). This rating ensures reliable blocking capability in 48 V and 100 V DC bus applications, including flyback and forward converter secondary sides. Exceeding 400 V risks avalanche breakdown and permanent damage to the RS2GFS junction.
Does RS2GFS support lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, RS2GFS supports lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements, and its moisture sensitivity level is rated Class 1-meaning unlimited floor life and no pre-bake required before standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C). This eliminates process complexity and ensures robust intermetallic formation during assembly of the RS2GFS.
What is the typical forward voltage of RS2GFS at full rated current and elevated temperature?
At 2 A forward current and 125°C junction temperature, the RS2GFS exhibits a typical forward voltage (VF) of 0.88 V, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table. This reduced VF versus room temperature (1.01 V) reflects positive temperature coefficient behavior, improving thermal stability in high-power density designs using the RS2GFS.
Can RS2GFS be used in parallel configurations for higher current handling?
Parallel use of RS2GFS devices is not recommended without external balancing-its forward voltage tolerance (±0.05 V typ.) and thermal coupling limitations may cause current imbalance. For >2 A applications, select a higher-current rectifier (e.g., RS3GFS) or verify matched VF binning and symmetric PCB thermal layout before deploying multiple RS2GFS units in parallel.
What is the reverse recovery time specification for RS2GFS and how is it measured?
The RS2GFS reverse recovery time (trr) is specified as ≤150 ns, measured under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A per JEDEC standard test conditions. This value reflects the time required for minority carriers to clear after forward conduction, directly impacting switching loss and EMI in high-frequency converters using the RS2GFS.
